amazon, 30% for google. we're also hearing concerns about use of consumers' personal information. that would be privacy. of course, privacy legislation has somehow if i lewded us, mostly -- eluded us, but that's the other piece of this puzzle in addition to the work that needs to be done on antitrust. americans are counting on us to protect innovation and competition, to go over the stats. 94 million people in the u.s. own at least one connected speaker which they can use the play music, ask about the weather, tell their kids to come down for dinner. in the years to come, connected devices in our home will become even more sophisticated. these devices work with each other through technology interfaces, often digital voice assistants like alexa. i want to highlight a few key concerns that we will explore at the hearing today. first, many consumers use their connected speakers to operate other connected devices like asking the digital assistant to lower the thermostat. they should get the very best available w

google, the scene. it's just not avoidable. with amazon, too, use businesses like aws which underpins a lot of the web are not something you can avoid. what that tells me what that tells us is that personal choices, personal decisions around which institutions want to interact and which ones you don't are not the way out of this. you have to push democratic institutions and policymakers to fix this problem because the influence and the reach of these institutions are so fast. consumers are users about unlocking to be able to force any change in behavior. >> host: given that come what are your views about how the european union has regulated big tech? >> guest: so the european union has moved out a little bit ahead of where the u.s. is, to be sure. we've seen some moves in germany in particular where for example, with facebook they basically said you can't share data between different platforms that you run, so if you are facebook you can't share data with what's apt and you can't share data with instagram. it's kind of a semi-b

and then going back to google, there's google books, also google, the search engine. our hope is that other people will continue to scan books and do similar projects. and then from google search we point the users to whoever has the best source of information. >> just to build a little bit on what brandon was saying. again, speaking from formerly at the university of michigan standpoint, the way that we really saw this, at least for the books that we own, that were our books, scanned by google, we build our own database for searching of those books. and in many ways we were trying to approve on some of these issues that we have already been talking about, and we did some things i think that indexing, for instance, a lot easier to do within in the books is what it was called. which is kind of the implementation of all the google books that we had at the time. and are continuing to build on. also trying to correct some of the metadata issues. so really, i am from a library perspective, this was a great way to just get the books scanned, and then we could kind of handle
